    Report on-board Dawn Venture

    went uptiding again at the weekend(4/1/13)....didn't go afloat on my vessel but on "Tina Dawn" for a bit of a "busmans away-day"!
    the water was coloured and a massive tide running(6.0m).I and the skipper managed 6 cod a piece with another 4 being landed on the boat plus half a dozen jumbo whiting(+2.5lb),
    squid and lug plus crab cart was the order of the day with most fish being hooked on the top of the pennel.
    fish size was smaller than the marks at Robin Hoods Bay but all went away happy.
    average fish size was 2-3lb with the largest pushing 6lb and a couple of undersize "chuck-backs
    twas a day of finicky bites
